In addition to Marvel’s release of Captain America “Sentinel of Liberty”, which we covered yesterday, the comic legends have also released some cool Captain America Live Wallpaper for your Android device. If you didn’t catch yesterday’s post, definitely give the link above a click and check out the game trailer.

As for the Live Wallpaper, it’s simple. Just tap anywhere to have shots fired at Cap’s shield and watch them be instantly deflected from all angles. Head on over to the Android Market to download the live wallpaper and don’t forget to let us know what you think.

Everyone’s favorite first Avenger is coming to the big screen, however, it’s also coming to the little screen. Your Android device that is. The folks over Marvel have managed to bring us Caps’ adventures on our mobile devices and I must say, not too bad. I’ve only managed to play the first six or seven levels but game play is very smooth and the animation was great. Some 3D effects would have been great, but it wasn’t entirely disappointing to play in 2D. The graphics were of HD quality and I especially loved how there were no controls on the screen other than to throw Cap’s shield. You get to play and operate Cap on the full screen using only gestures. The game play was very responsive to my rapid multi-touches and comes packed with tutorials on how to jump, punch, slide and more, along with great up close and personal combo attacks. The pop-ups can sort of become annoying, however, I found them very informative while quick to return me to game play. But if you really wanted, you could easily turn the function off in the settings menu.

Head into HYDRA territory with your sights on Red Skull and reclaim your stolen comrades in this action packed game, all on your Android smartphone.

Head on over to the Android Market and give it a test run for yourself. Don’t forget to let us know what you think in the comments below. Unfortunately, I don’t think it’s ready for tablets just yet. I was unable to see the game in the market with my original Galaxy Tab, which is running Froyo 2.2 (basically just bigger Android) So, there’s nothing that would convince me that the game is ready for Honeycomb devices. Hit the break for more screen shots and a video demo of Captain America taking names and kicking assets. Read more

When writing reviews about anything on Talk Android I always try my best to sound somewhat intelligent and as knowledgeable as possible in what I’m covering. To do that I try to use technical and detailed terminology. However, when playing Lane Splitter for Android, all I could muster up was “fricking awesome”. I’m not sure if it was the dual core CPU on my T-Mobile G2X or what, but game play was smooth and steady during testing. This game is extremely fun and will have you reaching for it every free second you get.

The Android OS continues to perform, now touting just over 250,000 applications to make its way to the Android Market. In conjunction with Google’s recent announcement of the Android Market update, Susan Wojcicki, senior vice president of advertising stated the proud news during the company’s second-quarter earnings. In addition, Wojcicki stated that there were over 6 billion downloads. As a Google lover and Android fan-boy, I couldn’t be more prouder. Is that a word? Well, 6 billion downloads is great when comparing to other application platforms, such as RIM’s 1 billion, and considering the fact that it took no time at all for Google to reach this point only shows that the search giant means business. I’m highly looking forward to the day TA can announce that Android hit 10 billion downloads!
